Who does your taxes?
My wife goes to HR Block every year and I swear up and down they rip me off!!
Any suggestions, I'm pretty stingy and I like to keep as much money as possible!!

I've been to both HR Block and a tax accountant, but I'd recommend Turbo Tax, if you don't have any holding companies, dividends, etc.
The only difference between them is that there's a live person asking you the same questions as Turbotax does on-screen.
For the use of the human, you have to pay an extra $25 dollars....but HR and accountants still use the same software with the same questions.

I have not made enough recently to need to go to those ritzy places, so I qualify for the low income tax filer program.
Cost me usually 6 hours and a whole weekend day. For free, I dont care!
Free coffee a broken cookies!

I go to a place called R.E.js its in lincoln park on dix . I was bitching to a freind about the same shit,bottom line is fuck HR block if you are dealing with more than a short form. I have sent 4 of my buddies their and everyone of them are hooked. I get at least 400-800 more $$$ in my pocket .
and all of my freinds say the same.
write off everything, there are tons of things to write off like if you work constructioin like me : laundry soap,work boots,carhart bibs,up to $300 a year in clothes ,union dues, new washer and dryer (every 3 years)ect.. ask ??s
your car registratoin fees lot of people dont know that .
anything involving your house improvments ,roof,flooring ,trim,paint,garage door,drywall ect..
my wife works in a hospital, we write off our new computer,new shelfs,desk,paper,supplies ,her whole office ect... but she does work from home 1 day a week . ( loop hole).
